Split 3 Format - Fearless and Other Updates
Split 3 kicks off with best-of-3 action and the debut of the all new “Pick n’ Play” system. At the end of each week, teams will choose their opponents for next week. One by one, the lowest ranked teams in the standings (by match and game record) will challenge teams above them in an attempt to climb the standings and avoid elimination.
When elimination matches kick in, the series will become all best-of-5’s to make the most of Fearless draft! During this phase, the selection process flips and higher ranked teams will select lower ranked ones. The last team standing at the end of Split 3 will be crowned Conference Champion, lifting the Split 3 LTA North Trophy and guaranteeing a spot at Worlds. The Top 3 teams will also continue on to the cross-conference playoffs to fight for the LTA Championship and one last spot at Worlds.

LTA Championship Driven by Kia
The LTA is headed to Texas! After Split 3 is over in LTA North and South, the run for the first-ever LTA Championship Trophy starts in Los Angeles - where the six teams will play and the top 3 proceed to Texas - to the LTA Championship Driven by Kia, which will take place on September 27-28 at the Credit Union of Texas Event Center. Visit Ticketmaster to grab tickets now!
LTA Fantasy
We saw tens of thousands of players engaging every week, so we are excited to announce that LTA Fantasy will continue throughout Split 3! The systems will stay mostly the same, but we will be incorporating some fan feedback to improve the experience even more. Once again, the top 100 placements in each conference will earn a skin!
